These seem as rare as hens teeth these days. Does anyone know if their are any third party suppliers who provide tent carpets that would fit the 2012 models?

Thanks

Can you not find out the measurement and buy the same size from a different company?

The Icarus 600 carpet is approximately 3.8m x 2.5m.

I use one in our Kinetic 600 which is basically the Airbeam version of an Icarus (it was much cheaper than an Airbeam carpet). When I first got the tent I used an existing carpet I had for a Gelert Horizon 8 (Think this is a Hi-Gear Zenobia 8 also) at 3.4m x 2.8. This fits nicely but there is no cutout for where the sleeping pods attach to the floor in the middle like the real Icarus version as both carpets go under the pods slightly so you could knock a good 30cm off the length making anything 3.6 to 3.8 x 2.2 to 2.5 usable.

There is one on eBay now ending in a couple of days.

Cheers

Hi Mike, I will see if I can find the receipt as I picked it up off the shelf in the Southampton store, size on the box says the carpet is 255 x 390

Regards

Paul

When I was looking around, the new Isis 600 seems almost exactly the same dimensions as the Icarus. So I imagine the carpet will be too, so that might work depending on how perfect a fit you need.
